I can't say I understand the problem. I can sort of see it in real life as there's concern that trades including picks could be more financially driven than competitive driven, but you don't really have that concern with online leagues (it's only play money). Obviously the people trading away the picks and prospects think that it's worth it and it sounds like this guy is smart in trading away guys who are going to get expensive and old soon. We had a guy who did that and his team dominated its division like no other (in 23 seasons they finished 1st 20 times, close 2nds the other 3), but in his 20+ seasons in the league he only won one championship.
Anyway, I've never had an issue with the trading of picks and prospects. On the contrary, I think being allowed to trade picks and prospects is vital to keeping interest in the league for many. I certainly don't think I could stand not being allowed to trade for them. Along with drafting and FA, trading is probably one of the most fun aspects of participating in an online league.
